The Poster of "Honey West," (Anne Francis) on the Wall in Cliff Booths' Trailer

The scene where Cliff Booth drives home from Hollywood on a Saturday night to spend the night alone in his rather shabby trailer with "Man's Best Friend"(dog Brandy) instead of on the town with hot chicks...is one of the best scenes in this movie.

And all the detail, all around in that trailer. on the TV and lying around. A "Sgt Rock" comic book, for instance.

But this: there is a big poster on Cliff's trailer wall of an actress who debuted in the 50's(in movies like Forbidden Planet and Bad Day at Black Rock) and then had a brief career as a "TV sexbomb" in the 60's.

Her name was Anne Francis. And in the 1965-66 TV season, she played a female private eye called "Honey West" who investigated cases and beat up the bad guys with a sexy mix of judo and karate. Hot stuff -- blonde, sexy and with a sexier still mole near her mouth.

And here's Cliff Booth with a big poster of Anne Francis -- in a bikini, yet -- on his trailer wall.

Here's my guess. Cliff Booth was a TV stuntman in the 60's(it is now 1969 in the story.) I'll bet he did some stunt work on "Honey West" in 1965 or 1966 -- maybe Anne Francis beat him up in a scene.

I'm guessing that ol' Cliff had an affair with Honey West...er...Anne Francis...and has commemorated it with her poster on his wall.
